What does the KRA mean to you / why is the KRA important to you?

I love being able to be a part of the KRA as a coach so that I can meet other families in the community and to connect with the kids to inspire a love for sport and the outdoors.

U4 Soccer Coach

Stephanie has been a coach & leader for various school sports teams and local organizations over the years. She feels that giving back to the community that provides such a wonderful place for her to live and raise her children is crucial. She decided to become a coach with the KRA for the first time this year primarily because there was a need for volunteers so that the kids can get outside and play. Although soccer is not a sport that she has coached before, she says “having twin 3-year old girls allows her to have some degree of insight on the importance of letting the kids learn teamwork, camaraderie and a love for outdoor play”.

Stephanie loves all animals, though she says she is quite partial to dogs. Stephanie also supports her family with her pet care business and as an international consultant/public speaker.
